The Master wars were a series of conflicts fought in the wealthiest cities of the world featuring urban revolutionaries, corporate security, and heavy use of remote drones and electronic warfare. The issues fought over are disputed even today, with each side accusing the other of making a bid for world dominance. The inciting incidents for each side were often nearly trivial, with an underlying distrust of corporate power and of popular movements driving each side.
The winners were a group of corporations known as "The Securities" who were not targeted by the revolutionaries until the later periods of the war, and who developed and perfected urban warfare. They won huge concessions to act in inner cities from most governments, saw many of their rivals crumble, and ultimately defeated the revolutionaries.
Question 14:
Is YOU-topia unqiue in its status as a plastic island floating off this particular coast?
Question 15:
What does the city produce that enables the millions of quasi-captive citizens to be fed?
